Aiden's POVI paced through the war room in the packhouse as I scanned through the battle maps that covered the large table in front of me. It had been a week since the unexpected attack on my territory, and while Logan, my Beta, had initially tried to keep it under wraps, I knew something was wrong. I could feel the loss of my warriors through the bond, the pain of their deaths crept into my consciousness like an uninvited specter. I had to fly back to Rome with a selected group of warriors from the Rock Reel Pack, we are allies now.Despite the ongoing chaos, my thoughts kept straying to Shenaya. She had barely been speaking to me, but that didn’t stop me from sending flowers and sweet notes to Paris every day. I smiled at the thought of her receiving my gestures, even if she was pretending not to care. Deep down, I knew she would come around.I stopped pacing and glanced out of the large window overlooking my compound. My mind wandered to the past, to the first ambush with Mighty,
LUCY'S POVI sat in the sunroom of the Roux estate with my eyes fixed on the two small pups playing in front of me. Zoey and Leo had been nothing but a source of comfort for me in the past few days. My niece and nephew were full of life, and for a moment, I found myself lost in the innocence of their world. It was a brief respite from the pain that had clouded my mind since I’d left Alenjro.The estate was peaceful, and quiet, with the occasional distant sounds of bustling Parisian life. The pups, however, were far from quiet as they chased each other with a ball across the room, laughing and arguing as siblings do."Give it back, Leo!" Zoey's sharp voice echoed as she tugged at the ball in Leo’s hands, her small body struggling against her older brother's strength."Why should I? You’re too slow!" Leo teased while holding the ball just out of her reach, his smug grin infuriating Zoey even more."I said, give it!" Zoey’s voice grew louder and more insistent, and her little face flushe
Shenaya's POVThe evening sky was painted with hues of violet and deep blue as Paris Fashion Week reached its peak. The grand event took place in the lavish Palais de Tokyo, the heart of the city’s fashion scene. Designers from across the world gathered all hoping to make their mark on the glittering catwalk. The hall was filled with the who's who of the industry, and cameras flashed endlessly.My entire family was in the audience, I could see the proud smile on their faces as they cheered to support me. My mother and father beamed with pride, and my best friend Lilah sat close by engaged in excited chatter with Andrew. Everyone knew Lilah to be a talkative, Ethan stood tall next to his mate Isla, both with an air of quiet authority, while Lucy, still recovering from her ordeals, sat quietly with a soft smile.Yet, despite the overwhelming success of my evening, my heart sank. There was a void. Aiden isn’t here. He hadn’t been around in days and had stopped sending me flowers and cut

Aiden's POVMy patience was wearing thin as I stormed into my office, my aura oozing power that made even my Delta, Gustavo, tremble slightly."You have to get me a ticket to Paris today! I don’t care how you do it," I barked with my voice filled with urgency and frustration."Yes, Alpha!" Gustavo stammered, visibly shaken as he quickly scurried out to handle the request. My aura was intense, a manifestation of my rising impatience, and even Smoke, my wolf felt unsettled by the amount of control I was trying to exert.I had been preoccupied with a series of attacks on the pack, which required all my attention. But now, with my mother, Alpha Fernly, back in charge, I could afford to leave. She was fierce and capable, and despite her absence for a while, I knew my pack was in good hands.My body was here but my mind was elsewhere entirely. It was on Shenaya. I had intentionally stopped sending her the notes and flowers, just to see how she would react. I didn’t want to overwhelm her, bu
Shenaya's POVI woke up with a throbbing headache, the harsh morning sunlight streaming through the curtains and hitting my face. I groaned softly and tried to bury my head back into the pillow but the flood of memories from the last night came crashing into my mind which made my eyes shoot open in disbelief."No, no... it can’t be real," I muttered to myself, I sat up abruptly, and my heart began to race as I clutched the bedsheets around me.“Good morning, beautiful.” A deep, familiar voice sounded beside me. I hadn’t even noticed Aiden sitting there casually leaning back in a chair by my bedside as he watched me with amusement evident in his face.My breath caught in my throat, I darted my eyes down and relief washed over me as I found myself fully clothed. I could ask the grown to open up and swallow me in embarrassment right now.“You must be having quite the headache right now.” Aiden stood up with a calm and almost smug look. He walked over to the table and grabbed a tray. He p
Shenaya/Emily's POVIt’s been a week since the incident that happened at the Paris Fashion Week and everything has been quiet since then. I did a brief investigation on the bartender’s death but there was no point to it and there was only little I could do since the whole case is being handled by the police in the human world.I hadn’t heard from Ethan or Aiden in the last few days. Ethan is probably out of the country for business. I wasn’t really worried about him. I was particularly worried about Aiden even though I knew I shouldn’t, I just couldn’t help it.How could he ask me out to dinner and ghost me afterward, it’s not like I wanted to go. I thought to myself.‘You didn’t want to go but you are looking forward to it, you are so mad at him,’ Lily mocked me ‘Whom are you kidding girl’.‘Shut up’ I scolded her while she just mocked me.I decided not to work today so I just strolled through the estate garden. Just as I finished my walk, I sat on a brick bench to take in some air t
Shenaya's POVI couldn’t shake off the unsettling feeling that had been gnawing at me for days. I started having the feeling that someone was lurking around the Roux estate. The sensation of being watched clung to me like a shadow, it grew more intense with each passing hour.I doubled the security at the estate, ordered the guards to double their patrols, and gave strict instructions that only Aiden should be granted access whenever he arrived. I could sense some danger coming and I had to keep my family safe.That evening, I decided to put my pups to bed earlier than usual, because I wanted to have a long talk with Aiden, the silence between us was killing me and I needed to be clear of what was going on. I made my way to the pup’s room, I cracked the door open and I was surprised when I met with silence in the room.The beds were empty. The room was generally emptyPanic surged through me, I quickly turned and bolted down the hallway. I rushed to Ethan and Isla’s suite, hoping to f
